...Paul Wolfowitz... once wrote that American leadership required “demonstrating that your friends will be protected and taken care of, that your enemies will be punished and that those who refuse to support you will live to regret having done so"...

Lesson: Responsibility for your actions and morality are for suckers. The rich can do what they want. L'Shanah tova!
